Description

I asked the authors of Slideshow Pro to look at an Media RSS feed and they gave me feed back :

Hey John - I think I know what the issue is. SSP's media rss parser doesn't use the element inside an when assigning the image title. It uses instead (which you don't have) . Most people (like Flickr) publish the same for both nodes. If you add that to your feed it should then work.

Possible Solution

on line 185 in "views_plugin_row_mediarss.inc", I put this is and the title appeared in the Flash gallery

array('key' => 'media:title', 'value' => $item->title),

Thank you very much for your contribution.

I have added the media:title tag to the next release so that it is available to be read by programs such as Slideshow Pro.

It is not added in the same line as suggest as I have changed the structure of the tagging to attain a result closer to the spec for media tags, which will hopefully allow for multiple media entries when readers allow this. Could you test whether the title tag still works with readers such as Slideshow Pro?

Thanks
Peter
